8. Thieves Wood
When the autumn chill sets in, where better to be than Thieves' Wood? It's a secluded place to walk, but it may not be for the faint-hearted, as it has a haunted history. Many walkers have reported 'ghostly' sightings, and there's a local legend that alleges a UFO crashed there in the 1980s. With Halloween approaching, it could be the perfect place to experience all that autumn has to offer. Photo: Googe
